It's Pierre's son. He played for the Avs.

And no, no joke. TSN is now reporting the firing.

I'm glad Roy is the avs coach, this means we won't have to hear about him being the habs coach this summer.

That makes more sense, but here's to hoping it turns out to be true. Having Roy coach the Habs would be a nightmare.

No news of Roy coaching, as of yet.

Highly premature statement.

Why would they hire a green GM as they are entering a rebuilding phase?

Roy wants to keep coaching his youngest son next yr who might be captain of the Remparts. I bet he'll only coach in the NHL after next yr.

Change the thread title until anything has actually been confirmed about Roy. It's very misleading.

Roy already said he didn't even want to think about the NHL till the Q season was over.

Are the Remparts done?

Roy said a few weeks ago (I heard him myself on CKAC), when asked about a coaching position with the Habs or the Avs that he wants to finish the season with the Remparts and that after that "he will think about it".

No it didn't.

Al Strachan said it, first. Second, even HE said he did not vouch for its accuracy, only that it's a rumor flying around.
